I would like to focus this article on the basis of the golf swing. the grip.
Unquestionably the biggest mistake in people's golf swing isn't in their golf swing
itself.

Nope. Not at all.

More often than not the mistakes happen before the swing even begins. The first
mistake is made in how the golfer holds the golf club. After that the next mistake
usually comes in with how they stand up to the ball. Poor posture. Then after having
two strikes against them, they then finish the job of making it almost impossible to
hit a good golf shot by improperly lining up to their intended target.

Of course, after hitting several (possibly several hundred) balls with only a minute
few being what they think is acceptable the tired frustrated golfer asks. what am I
doing wrong with my swing?

I want to discuss the very first part of the proper golf swing . the golf grip. In
fact, let's be even more precise here; the left hand grip on the golf club. Oh sure.
there's much more than just the grip including the aforementioned posture and
alignment. So let's stay with the grip for this communication.

The position of your club face is greatly influenced by your grip. And this is
especially true as your club face enters the impact zone and contacts the ball.
Certainly there is an abundance of golf swing peccadillo's that can occur that can
cause those woeful golf shots. You know the ones I'm talking about: the banana ball,
the smothered hook, skied, skulled, and chili dipped. Ok, I'll stop. If you'll stop
trying to correct your golf swing by in incessantly hitting ball after ball trying
to make every physical adjustment known to man (and some that aren't) within your
golf swing itself and begin by using a fundamentally sound grip.

So you're going to continue on with me. great! Let's talk about the left hand (right
handed golfers) first and foremost.

The left had should come in contact with the grip of the club in such a manner that
the grip cuts a diagonal across the palm of the left hand from the crook in the
index finger down and across to the bottom right pad of the left hand.

When you close your left hand, your club should be held in the first to fingers and
your palm.
